Unfortunately, with a few exceptions, the List of Quarries and List of Mines weren't Parliamentary papers, so they aren't included in the online collection that Peter mentioned. The exception is that, in its early years (the 1870s and 1880s, I think), the List of Mines was a supplement to the Mineral Statistics which was a Parliamentary paper, so those years will be available.
These are the sort of things that I would have expected to find on Google Books, but they aren't there. In fact, Google seems to be reluctant to include any British official publications, even if they're long out of copyright.
